It's a neat argument that the Feds have.
If you send traffic unencrypted: 'You have no expectation of privacy, because you're broadcasting information publicly.'
Turn on encryption: 'Clearly you have something to hide, and deserve additional scrutiny. It's still not a fourth amendment violation because we are just compelling a business to give us your keys'

- dclowd9901 13y agoActually laws do protect private domain of a rental. It's the same reason the apartment companies themselves/landlords are not allowed to enter the apartment without your expressed consent.
- jessaustin 13y agoThe point is those laws are the implementation of the intent behind the Fourth Amendment, and it's strange that we don't have other laws which implement the full intent of the Fourth Amendment with respect to private communication.
